There is a reason why the food tastes bland when we have cold. We don’t get to smell the food and hence, we don’t get the taste of it. Currently, that’s my situation and the medicine is further killing my palate. It feels like for a past few days, all I am talking about is how I have been either taking care of my sick baby or how I am dealing with my sickness. Everyone I talk to tells the same story. It’s the horrible flu season! Apart from comfy food to soothe my throat, I needed something zingy to uplift my mood.
The Baked Chicken Meatballs
I choose chicken thigh only because it’s easy to retain the juicy tenderness as compared to chicken breast. You can definitely fry these chicken meatballs and that would definitely add more color. But, I decided to go for baking instead. Less usage of oil equals less guilt!
You will realize that the texture of the chicken mixture is very loose and you cannot make the perfect round shape. It is this loose texture which keeps the chicken meatballs very moist and tender.
The Spiced Sticky Baked Chicken Meatballs makes a great party bite. You can also convert it into a meal by tossing some noodles with it or add in your wrap with some salad on top.
